          <li>
            Utilize the master pattern to generate additional molds or tools, employing diverse

        A single master pattern has the capability to generate numerous tools or molds,
        accommodating both large and small production quantities. Consequently, this enables the
        production of a significantly larger number of prototypes.

        Opt for direct rapid tooling if your main goal is to swiftly assess a design concept’s
        feasibility. This method offers flexibility, allowing you to experiment with various
        dimensions and quickly iterate on your design.
      </p>
      <p class="text-[#272626] text-4 tracking-normal leading-6 text-justify mt-8">
        Conversely, indirect rapid tooling is ideal for product designers ready to conduct extensive
        prototype testing. It facilitates thorough evaluation of various materials, finishes, and
        other characteristics crucial to the final product. Indirect rapid tooling is the preferred
        option for product designers that are ready to thoroughly test their prototypes and select
        materials or finishes for their end products.
      </p>
      <p class="text-[#272626] text-4 tracking-normal leading-6 text-justify mt-8">
        By considering your specific needs and objectives, you can determine whether direct or
        indirect rapid tooling is the preferred option for your particular design and development
        stage. Or contact us to discuss.
